Cumbrian Heavy Horses

Reviewed By xljxx

Me and my partner both love horses and were staying in the area so decided to book a farm ride at Cumbrian heavy horses and was not disappointed! The booking was really straightforward and was told what to expect when we arrive etc. especially as we are not experienced riders. Kim took us out, she was so friendly and told us lots about the horses, it ended up just being us three during the farm ride so it was really relaxed and we got lots of photos with the beautiful surroundings. The horses are truly beautiful and clearly so cared for and loved. Thank you for a great day!

Ross Nye Stables

Established in 1965, Ross Nye Stables is the longest-established riding school to offer riding in Central London. Horses and riding have been synonymous with Hyde Park since the reign of Henry VIII, when it was used as a hunting ground for the Tudor Court! We offer both 'one off', memorable, bucket list hacks around the historic Hyde Park - including the famous Rotten Row! As well as, regular riding lessons for people of all experience levels and ages above 6 years.

My daughter and I both ride at home, and love to book horse experiences when traveling. I researched Ross Nye Stables here on TA before booking and my fellow reviewers did not steer me wrong. Dagmara and Louis were our guides on our private ride where we rode Clifton and Albus. They're located very close to Hyde Park, so it's only a short walk through the street before you reach the park. At home we would never ride in the streets, however, the drivers and people were so respectful of the horses and riders that I never felt unsafe. We got to see one of the queen's carriages in the park as well as the Royal guards with their horses in the park and another set heading to Buckingham palace. We had a great time and my daughter said her favorite part of our entire trip was cantering down Rotton row. No worries if you don't have boots, they can outfit you. We would book again!

Not having ridden for a good number of years, returning to it with Arniss has been amazing. All my nerves were soon forgotten with the friendly helpful staff, yesterday I went again, another Hack through the forest, Amy was really knowledgeable about the forest, we reached a beautiful area where we stopped and Amy took photos for us. I would recommend this place for anyone who would like to experience horse riding, with the added bonus of stunning scenery and the chance of seeing amazing wildlife. I will be back again, thanks to all at Arniss my passion for horse riding has been rekindled.

Cholwell Riding Stables

Reviewed By erinc2018

My other half and I visited Cholwell stables in September 2020 as part of our trip down to Devon. It’s safe to say that our hour and a half ride on Dartmoor was the highlight of our whole trip! The staff at Cholwell Riding Stables are friendly and accommodating and the horses (Zippy and Oreo) were just fab. Upon booking you are asked for your height, weight and riding experience so that you are matched up with a suitable horse. It really seems as though all levels are catered for which is great. Thank you Cholwell, we will definitely be back! :)

Boltby Pony Trekking

Reviewed By 603mikef - Leeds, United Kingdom

This is the second time I have ridden with the Boltby Stables and they didn't fail to disappoint. Sheila, the owner, always does her best to accommodate all experience's of the riders and match up the horses accordingly. The route she picked included a lovely wooded hill top for our packed lunch with fantastic views all around. In fact, this summed up the scenery for all of our ride. I believe that the diversity of riding scenery is second to none with riding through woodland to moorland and through pretty villages etc.. It is certainly one of my summer highlights that I look forwaqrd to and will go again

Went on this amazing trip yesterday 18/07/2020. From start to finish it was well organised. On the way we stopped for breakfast which was large with unlimited tea and coffee. We also stayed their on the way back home and for just £12.00 you had main course and desert which again very large portions and served by two very nice members of staff. The horse riding activity was excellent and again the staff at the stables were all lovely. Hello to Mary. They had a very warm and friendly approach and you could tell how much they loved their horses which were all well looked after. The walk along the cliffs is not for those with a fear of heights, saying that once you are up there the views are second to none and surely took my breath away. Just seeing the wild horses and the valley below us with its streams and water falls made it all worth while. The horses were extremely well behaved and I totally fell in love with my horse Sky. Now on to George he is the lovely man who runs hoovin about. He is fun witty and made all of us laugh from the moment we met to sadly saying our fond farewells. He made us all feel at ease and although I was in two minds about going to begin with as this was organised by my daughter, I can honestly say I am so glad I went. This was just the tonic I needed... No not gin and tonic !!! I have not had so much fun in a long time, and after being couped up for such along time during lock down this was just what I needed. Some outdoor fresh air and a good laugh with some fantastic people who I had the pleasure of meeting for the first time. So all I can say is get out from behind your laptops and put down your gaming consoles its time for some long awaited company and fun. Thanks George for a great day out.
